Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="JoKalsbeek" data-source="post: 2749838" data-attributes="member: 401801">Hello Janice, and welcome!The can and can't eat thing is easy enough to solve: get yourself a meter, and test before a meal and 2 hours after the first bite. If your blood glucose rises more than 2.0 mmol/l, there were more carbs in the meal than your body could process. So you're aiming for that or less. It's the carbs we have a problem with, so go from there. <a href="https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html" target="_blank">https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html</a> might help some get you started, but since you're with the NHS, maybe you'd be interested in/drawn to more in-depth stuff like Dr. Jason Fung's The Diabetes Code. Your background in medical care could be quite a help on this journey for you!Anyway, again, welcome to the club, hopefully we can be of use. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Jo</blockquote>
